F6F HELLCAT F4U CORSAIR The obverse designs of the aircraft have all been selectively plated in 24-carat gold against a proof-like mirror finish in the background. Each coin is in generally excellent condition and appear to have never been removed from the encapsulation. Some very pale purplish toning is evident on some of the coins. The reverse of all nine coins has a selectively gold-plated flying eagle against a gold-plated five-pointed star which has radiating rays of light again a proof-like mirror finish background. The rim of the reverse has the words, "ONE TROY OUNCE .999 FINE SILVER" with six small stars separating the phrase The collection is housed in a 10.5x9-inch maroon leatherette-style hinged box with two brass latches and two brass hinges. The interior lid is covered in an ivory satin material with the gold-embossed branding logo of the collection. The inside cover and the interior red velvet that houses the 15 encapsulated coins are in excellent condition. This presentation box is then contained in a white cardboard box with the same title design gold-foil embossed on the lid. This comes from the liquidation of Northwest Territorial Mint.
